Minutes of Baldwin Hills ARC Meeting 3/1/00

The third 2000 meeting of the Baldwin Hills Amateur Radio Club was called to order at 1946 on March 1, 2000 by the Vice-President, Juan, KB6KMU, as the President had not arrived yet. We met in the Garden Room, as the Rotunda Room was being used for a commercial shoot. Also present were Hugh, NV6H, Secretary; and David, N6HGJ, our dauntless Membership Chairman/Treasurer.

I. Old Business

1. The Vice-President thanked everyone for coming, and immediately took up plans for the weekend's Los Angeles Marathon's ham radio participation.
2. The President, James, N6KWI, arrived at 1955, and took over the Chair.
1. The Secretary read the minutes from the February, 1999 meeting. They were approved with several corrections.
2. The Secretary put on his other hat as ARRL Representative, and relayed Fried Heyn's reminder that hams should show support for SB 1714, a California State Senate bill pre-empting restrictive local antenna laws.
3. Dieter, KD6LVW, reported that 80 people showed up at Jun's VE session, not that many below the previous month's 90. Dieter still needs volunteers to help out at these post-restructuring sessions.

II. New Business

1. The President noted that the Social and Program Committee chairmanships were still open. James reminded everyone that programs are way more fun than just watching the officers flap their jaws once a month.
2. Dieter proposed that the Club roster should be posted to the World Wide Web site, and also perhaps a list be compiled of repeater users that might want to join the Club, possibly at a reduced rate if they can't make meetings. A discussion ensued, and it was more or less agreed upon that the first suggestion could be made to work. It would not be that hard to ask members with a check box on the new/renewal form, to ensure nobody's published who doesn't want to be.
3. With this, we stood ADJOURNED at 2024, until April 5, 2000.
